Miter Saw Reviews – What to Look for in a Miter Saw

May 13th, 2010 Jack No comments

When you’re considering buying a new miter saw, it’s important that you research a variety of different models and check out some of the consumer miter saw reviews so that you know you’re making a good choice. Below are a few of the things you want to look for when reading reviews:

Blade Diameter: Most common miter saw blades range 7-1/2 inches to around 12 inches. There are of course other sizes, but the 10-12 inch range is suitable for most jobs. If you work on larger projects and often cut bigger pieces of wood, then you’ll need a bigger blade. If you do smaller jobs like cabinet making, a smaller blade diameter will suit you just fine. No need to go overboard with the blade size if you don’t need it.

Motor Amps: This will directly effect the power and RPM of your miter saw. The 12-15 amp range is usually sufficient for most jobs and what you will see on most miter saws.

Indexes that are Easy to Read: The gauge indexes should be easily readable to you while you’re cutting so that you can get your work done quicker and not have to worry if you’re at the right index or not.

Electric Brakes: Using an electric brake gives you more control and is much safer so you don’t have to wait for the blade to come to a stop on it’s own. It will also help you get done faster.

Dust Bags: This is one of the most important features of a miter saw. Breathing in all that dust can be very harmful to your health and the health of anyone around you. Not only that, but it leaves your workspace looking like a mess. If the miter saw you’re looking at doesn’t have a dust bag, make sure you can hook it up to your shop-vac

Built-in Laser Guide: This is more of an extra feature and not necessary, but it does come in handy and helps you make more precise cuts. Make sure if you’re choosing a miter saw with a laser that it’s adjustable; Some of them are not.

Sliding Fences: Using sliding fences will give you better support for taller stock on all your cuts.

As you can see, there’s a lot to consider when purchasing a new miter saw. If you’re a professional you probably already know exactly what you need, but for those that are new to buying miter saws, it’s important to know the difference between certain models and have done your research so you buy the correct saw. Reading through good miter saw reviews will help you with just that.

I’ll be adding a good amount of miter saw reviews over the next couple weeks for all different brands and models so keep checking back for them.

Thanks for reading.

Hello, thanks for taking the time to stop by my site.
